 Description: Base 'DataSHIELD' functions for the client side. 'DataSHIELD' is a software package which allows
     you to do non-disclosive federated analysis on sensitive data. 'DataSHIELD' analytic functions have
     been designed to only share non disclosive summary statistics, with built in automated output

+#' @title Display missing data patterns with disclosure control
+#' @description This function is a client-side wrapper for the server-side mdPatternDS
+#' function. It generates a missing data pattern matrix similar to mice::md.pattern but
+#' with disclosure control applied to prevent revealing small cell counts.
+#' @details The function calls the server-side mdPatternDS function which uses
+#' mice::md.pattern to analyze missing data patterns. Patterns with counts below the 
+#' disclosure threshold (default: nfilter.tab = 3) are suppressed to maintain privacy.
+#'
+#' \strong{Output Format:}
+#' - Each row represents a missing data pattern
+#' - Pattern counts are shown in row names (e.g., "150", "25")
+#' - Columns show 1 if the variable is observed, 0 if missing
+#' - Last column shows the total number of missing values per pattern
+#' - Last row shows the total number of missing values per variable
+#'
+#' \strong{Disclosure Control:}
+#'
+#' Suppressed patterns (count below threshold) are indicated by:
+#' - Row name: "suppressed(<N>)" where N is the threshold
+#' - All pattern values set to NA
+#' - Summary row also suppressed to prevent back-calculation
+#'
+#' \strong{Pooling Behavior (type='combine'):}
+#'
+#' When pooling across studies, the function uses a \emph{conservative approach} 
+#' for disclosure control:
+#'
+#' 1. Identifies identical missing patterns across studies
+#' 2. \strong{EXCLUDES suppressed patterns from pooling} - patterns suppressed in 
+#'    ANY study are not included in the pooled count
+#' 3. Sums counts only for non-suppressed identical patterns
+#' 4. Re-validates pooled counts against disclosure threshold
+#'
+#' \strong{Important:} This conservative approach means:
+#' - Pooled counts may be \emph{underestimates} if some studies had suppressed patterns
+#' - This prevents disclosure through subtraction (e.g., if study A shows count=5 
+#'   and pool shows count=7, one could deduce study B has count=2, violating disclosure)
+#' - Different patterns across studies are preserved separately in the pooled result
+#'
+#' @param x a character string specifying the name of a data frame or matrix on the 
+#' server-side containing the data to analyze.
+#' @param type a character string specifying the output type. If 'split' (default), 
+#' returns separate patterns for each study. If 'combine', attempts to pool patterns 
+#' across studies.
+#' @param datasources a list of \code{\link[DSI]{DSConnection-class}} objects obtained 
+#' after login. If the \code{datasources} argument is not specified, the default set of 
+#' connections will be used: see \code{\link[DSI]{datashield.connections_default}}.
+#' @return For type='split': A list with one element per study, each containing:
+#' \describe{
+#'   \item{pattern}{The missing data pattern matrix for that study}
+#'   \item{valid}{Logical indicating if all patterns meet disclosure requirements}
+#'   \item{message}{A message describing the validity status}
+#' }
+#'
+#' For type='combine': A list containing:
+#' \describe{
+#'   \item{pattern}{The pooled missing data pattern matrix across all studies}
+#'   \item{valid}{Logical indicating if all pooled patterns meet disclosure requirements}
+#'   \item{message}{A message describing the validity status}
